I'm building a rod for someone that's a gift and he has a Penn fathom 12. Do they have clamps? Wondering if I can do a deck hand handle but I can't find a picture or anything online that shows the bottom of the reel. Thanks Sheridan
Swami,
The FTM12 comes with a clamp but there are after market clamps that may also work with the 12. Check out Duran Fishing Products and Tiburon Engineering (The same Tib that makes frames and such). Both have some after market clamp assemblies that may work with the FTM 12 on a Deckhand style stick depending the on the blank thickness if the stock clamp won't work.

You mean the standard clamp that comes with that fathom?
Yes, just a standard clamp. I don't see one in any of the pictures or videos online. I thought if someone owned one they'd know. I can build the rod with a reel seat if I have too. I can't really call the guy to see, it's a gift from his son.
I have a spare set...is this what you are looking for?
Ok thanks, They do come with a clamp.Just looking for info. Super hard to tell from what I could find. Thanks
Let me know if you need them, I'll gladly ship them to you NC!
